Verse YLT Young's Literal Translation KJV King James Version

O the happiness of that one, who Hath not walked in the counsel of the wicked. And in the way of sinners hath not stood , And in the seat of scorners hath not sat;

Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.

But -- in the law of Jehovah `is' his delight, And in His law he doth meditate by day and by night :

But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night .

And he hath been as a tree , Planted by rivulets of water, That giveth its fruit in its season , And its leaf doth not wither , And all that he doth he causeth to prosper.

And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season ; his leaf also shall not wither ; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

Not so the wicked : But -- as chaff that wind driveth away !

The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away .

Therefore the wicked rise not in judgment, Nor sinners in the company of the righteous ,

Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous .

For Jehovah is knowing the way of the righteous , And the way of the wicked is lost!

For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous : but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
